Random Cats

[Beerfish]

I was thinking about the thread about dogs and thought maybe we should have one about cats too where people can post pics of their cats, talk about their cats and basically not clog up the dog thread with shit about cats.

I'll kick things off.

My kind of thread.

I will post some choice snaps later.

I have actually been owned by 2 cats and was briefly adopted by another. I think I have some pics somewhere as well for posting later.

that is a very pretty cat. Too pretty to be male?

 

[GUMBLETRON]

He's a little shit who gets by on his good looks.

Great idea Beerfish.

Meet Wanda. She's a 2 year old Norwegian Forest Cat.

My sister's cat is half Norwegian Forest Cat, doesn't quite have that level of nobility though.

Beautiful cat. What's the other half?

So I grew up with cats with my mother, pretty much.

She's sort of taken on plenty since I moved out. Like little Bella here:



Bella also had a twin brother Oli, who sadly didn't make it beyond four days old. I did get this little shot during his brief life though, with Bella:





And my favourite one of all, little Monty. Undoubtedly a volatile little thing, he nonetheless was a great cat and when he passed two years ago I was very sad. This is him casually sitting in the open hatchback of my car:

As much of a dog person I am (I'm just a sucker for those guys) I don't mind cats in small doses. Mostly because of allergies.

This is my puss Marlo



he spends a few minutes a day doing this



but most of the day like this



i rescused him from a lady who could no longer keep him, she rescued him from a family who couldnt keep him due to allergies...

he was milo, now hes our marlo.

hes on his third life and going nowhere!

to the best of our knowledge - and the vets guessing, hes a ragdoll.

hes the funniest cat in history, loves a shin headbutt and licking your arms in bed, but is frightened of anything hes not ready for, he routinely jumps off all fours straight in the air when somebody makes a sudden sound....like in the cartoons hes basically hanging off the light fitting

the funniest one was a few weeks ago, he followed me into the toilet, im standing there about to pee - pop out a little fart - he just raises a meter in the air off all fours in panic like the floor had just electrocuted him or something.

Please don't make me spit out my coffee like that again, Howard Moon.

Ages ago mum had a bit of a crazy cat. Took her in from a neighbour where she was the outcast of three cats. We named her Chloe.

Anyway one day I was getting ready to go to school and my school bag was strategically placed just around the corner from a doorway.

So Chloe decided to come screeching around the corner and inevitably comes face to face with my bag - and promptly hissed her little lungs at it, and then started howling too. Meanwhile I'm sitting there chowing down on a bowl of All Bran just feeling very confused.

She wasn't the most cerebral of cats, on reflection.

 

[GUMBLETRON]

Beautiful cat. What's the other half?

Some sort of shorthair I think.

 

[Howard Moon]

Marlo also wants to be a night cat - sleeps all day, the minute the sun goes down hes meowing at the door to get let out, of course we dont open it... so as soon as we go to sleep he will claw at the bottom of the bed til we relent. Im not losing this battle.

 

[Beerfish]

Im not losing this battle.

Good. I don't mind cats but I can't stand irresponsible owners who let them roam.

 

[Howard Moon]

Beautiful cat. What's the other half?

Back legs and tail I reckon

This is Ping. I took her on as a kitten when a mate brought a whole litter up from Nannup in his HQ because the owner was going to brick them all as they were unwanted. It was quite the road trip from all reports. I went round to his mum's place and he had 9 kittens bouncing off the walls of the bathroom. Ping was lying in the basin chilling so she chose me. I called her Ping because she was always pinging around the place like a rubber band. We had a couple of mattresses against the wall of the spare room where all our guitars and drums were set up for noise abatement and she used to claw her way up the mattresses and sleep on the top of them. It was hilarious to watch her going up and coming back down. She also used to go to sleep on top of the television and there was one night where there were a few of us watching tv and we all watched her slowly fall off the top of the tv as she was so relaxed. As soon as she was falling all legs went out, claws out, trying to grip anything but it was too late. You had to be there. Half a dozen people watched the whole thing happen without saying a word until the inevitable laughter ensued.



This is Ping with Marshall (as in holler for a - wired world of sports), the other cat at the time. He was another rescue and quite a character in his own right. Both sadly no longer with us and these are pics of actual photographs taken with my phone so that's why the quality is shite. These are circa 1995.

My cat is a nutter but it absolutely adores me and she charms the pants of people who see her, she knows she's cute and knows exactly what to do to get attention Haha

 

[jmoo wan]

This is Yoda.
Yoda is a lazy, destructive little bitch

when she dies, we are getting new couches!

This is my handsome man Leo He's an angry little thing but I love him, had quite a few problems with anxiety and UTI's but he is seeming to be a lot better lately. We adopted him 4 years ago from a shelter.

And this is Cleo who we adopted nearly two years ago, she is nuts. Full on crazy but hilarious.

Here are a couple of videos of her being nuts:

EDIT: I just realised the links don't work so I'll post them tonight.

Crazy Cleo

Crazy Cleo

Just Karate Kicks the wall haha Kittens are hilarious

Just Karate Kicks the wall haha Kittens are hilarious

She will actually be four in October haha, she's just ridiculously small. I don't think her craziness will die down anytime soon as she still does that kind of stuff four to five times during the day/night.

Her wall kicks are the best though
